All flexibility sources will be needed Dispatchable power plants Demand side Response (via smart grid) Energy storage facilities Interconnection with adjacent markets Industrial Biomass-fired power plant residential Pumped hydro facility Scandinavian interconnections
Smart grid benefits exceed costs by a factor of 1.5-4.5... but direct benefits of investment in one sector may be found in other sectors.
What do we need to do? Barriers? Use systems based approaches utilise flexibility resources from all parts of the electricity system Learn by doing - increased pilot and demonstration projects will enable of real-world solutions for flexibility Support new technology deployment develop regulatory and market solutions that allow new technologies and new actors to support system operation Determine regulatory approaches that support conventional and new technologies and adequately share costs, benefits and risks.
Introducing the IEA TechPlatform Established July 2009 G8 meeting, L Aquila Operations start October 2010: High level meeting, Paris Action: Outcome: Covers all major low carbon energy technologies (inc. EE, PHEVs) IEA member and non-member countries, flexibility Partnerships with governments, industry, and private sector OECD/IEA 2011
OECD/IEA 2011 Context: ~20 IEA Global Technology roadmaps -published or under development Increasing demand for IEA guidance at national level Maximising IEA reach How2Guides: Technology, policy, and methodological guidance for governments Encourage and facilitate the development and implementation of national roadmaps Guidance will be technology specific + geographically neutral Output: How2Guide publication + H2G training modules How2Guide training + capacity building activities (including train the trainer) Direct/indirect IEA roadmap support for governments
4. Roadmap development Indirect support Direct support 1. How2Guide (H2G) Stakeholder engagement Capture knowledge Develop the tools TechPlatform Roadmap services 3. Training Bi-lateral Multi-lateral Train The Trainer (T3) 2. Capacity building Disseminate H2G content International best practice Secure commitment
Content summary: WHAT are the salient policy issues for development/deployment? WHY are they important, and what are their impacts? WHICH solutions represent realistic options? Priority/solution pathways? WHO are the relevant stakeholders (per identified policy issue)? HOW - Best practice methodology on roadmap development HOW - Best practice methodology on roadmap implementation OECD/IEA 2011
How2Guide for Smart Grids in Distribution Networks Each How2Guide will be developed on the basis of up to 4 technical workshops, each hosted in a different global regions against a diverse range of geographical and market contexts Partners: SENER, ISGAN, USDoE, SwissDoE, GE, ADB, SEAI 1st workshop = March 26 28, 2012, Mexico City (SENER) 2nd workshop = 12-13 September2012, Dublin (SEAI) 3rd workshop = 23-24 October 2012, Manila (ADB) 4th workshop = February 2012, possibly South Africa (TBC) Other H2G technologies: Wind Energy Bioenergy heat and power Solar PV OECD/IEA 2011
Frequently Asked Questions? Why focus on distribution networks? It is the sector with the greatest need and least development at this time Transmission system smartening is already quite advanced Is this only for developing countries? No but developing countries and emerging economies are a key audience for this initiative Many developed countries and regions have created roadmaps already, but many more are needed. What are some of the values of this project? A consistent methodology of smart grid planning and grid development will accelerate technology deployment Lessons learned in other regions can be shared abroad Countries and regions can better assess and communicate needs, leading to more appropriate and timely deployment of solutions OECD/IEA 2011
